SHERLOCK HOLMES COULD NOT COMPETE...



No sooner has a man been murdered in South Armagh (bandit country, the IRA heartland) than out comes this statement from the Police informing us that the murder was NOT paramilitary linked. I ask, HOW does the PSNI come to this firm conclusion so quickly? Have they run all their forensics and double-checked every detail? Even Sherlock Holmes would have struggled to keep up with our utterly politicised Police Service of Northern Ireland and ubercop Hugh Orde. If you read the story carefully, it becomes clear that the PSNI are not entirely ruling out a paramilitary link - BUT THE BBC IS!!! What does that say about media impartiality? Whose agenda, one wonders, is the BBC pursuing. After all, by implying no paramilitary link - the only winners here are paramilitaries. Makes you wonder.
